CHAPTER 8

Crystal's Pov.

as usual i woke up early take a bath and dress up before going to our dining to eat breakfast, after that i already went to school, i am not wearing my glasses anymore cause there's no sense since they alreard knew who i really am, same with my clothes i wore a fitted but not so fitted just enough for me uniform now .

when i went inside our room i go directly to wear my seat is.and didn't bother those who's looking at me i put my earpods and listen to music my whole morning until afternoon work as that me listening to music if vacant or listening to our prof's.

It's already 2 o'clock and our class just finished and we decided to go a cafe in BGC to just hang out, its' Mica's idea by the way.

I'm inside Gab's car while mica is with vince, we're just following Vince's car because mica is the one who knows where exactly we are going, if i'll be giving a choice where to go i 'll choose to go home and sleep.

After minutes of drive we already went to Elephant Grounds in the ground floor of one bonifacio beside Hk-based Chino. which has their own branch here in the Philippines but originally a hongkong based.

We found a four seater table where we seat and order food

i ordered one egg salad toast and a sunset iced tea, Gab ordered what's mine too, but with duck and waffle.

while Mica ordered EG angus sourdough burger and a Masala Chai latte. while Vince ordered Bacon steak and egg waffles and Espresso for drinks,after a few minutes our orders got served and we started eating

after we eat and pay bills we separated ways because Mica said she' still needsto buy something in greenhills while Gab said that he'll bring me somewhere and minutes later we entered the Venice grand canal Mall in taguig where walking side by side until we reached at where we can see the river like or something inside i am actually looking at it in awe when Gab held my hand that made me look at him.

"Crystal i want to tell you something" he started while still holding my hand." first i want you to know that i really really like you, when i first saw you even when you're wearing your glasses i know your beautiful and i said to myself that i want to know you more and when we saw you and Mica inside the mall i don't know why i just found myself following you inside the grocery store for you to buy a chocolates and when you entered a book store to buys books until when you got to the parking lot and goes to where your car at, ever since that day i always found myself observing you and wanting to know you more, until they announced that you're crystal the owner i don't know why but i felt jealous especially when i knew that sometimes you have different male partners in modeling until i just saw myself buying all the magazines you have and tearing those pages you're with someone else and wanting those whose holding you in those pictures i'm very jealous and when your parents announced that Crystal when you removed your eyeglasses in front of everyone got upset cause now it's not just me who can see how beautiful you are it's not just me who can notice you anymore there are lot of men who can notice you and you can notice, that's why i decided to tell you my feelings now because i don't want to regret not telling you what i feel for you and i'm telling this because i want to ask if i can court you, you know i'm not telling you this for you to like me back i'm telling you this to ask for your permission and for you to know that even if you don't have feelings for me because when i said that i want to court you i want to do it for you to fell in love with me cause that's what you do when you're courting someone right?? for them to see that you are serious and that you want them to feel you're love f or them, and thats what i'm doing telling you how my i adore you, how much i like you with or without your glasses, how much i love you and i'm not gonna pressure you i'll wait till you are ready to enter a relationship and until you already feel the same towards me i'll wait even if it might take forever i'll wait even if there's no assurance at all and wait till you fell in love with me to until you're head over heels of me because that's how i feel for you it might sound corny and cliche but that's really what i feel and this is the first time i feel this those butterflies in my stomach every time i see you're rare smiles and laugh and how sweet it is when you call my name it actually melts my heart hearing you call my name i love you" he said.

"I-I-I don't know what to say" that's what i've said to him i though he'll go berserk but he didn't instead he smiled at me.

"it's fine as long a you allow me to court you cause like what i've said i'm not gonna force you i'll wait until you fell for me too. " that's what he said and i just nod my head to tell him i'm agreeing to him about courting me he smiled again before hugging me and kissing my forehead.

After that he brought me home but before that he brought me chocolates first and told me to eat it moderately which i just nod.

I was happy entering my room when someone called, it says it's unregistered number saw i was curious who is it.so i answered it.

"hello who's this and where did you get my number?." i asked

"Its nice to hear your voice again Queen duchess." someone on the phone said that makes me froze and shock.

What the h*ll.
